The starting point for a walk around the Old Town Songkhla is from the Songkhla City Gate along Nakhon Nok Road, which is a road along the Songkhla Lake. At the end of the road is an old mill painted red called “Hap Ho Hin”, which now arranges permanent exhibitions. The story of the Old Town Songkhla continues on Nakhon Nai and Nang Ngam Roads, which have a collection of local savoury restaurants that have been famous for decades. Shops that sell Thai desserts are hard to find, e.g., Khi Mot, Thong Ek, Khao Fang Kuan, Khanom Krabok. Khanom Butu, Sampanni, as well as an ice cream shop, rice and stew shop, ancient coffee shop, etc. In addition, tourists can also walk and admire the street art paintings on the walls of houses on different roads. Each image reflects the way of life of the local people, e.g., coffeehouse forum, three different ethnic children, coffee cart, Chinese opera singer, etc.
